Chapter 370 Foreign Enemies
After executing the five dark races, both human and new human forces returned to their respective bases. Li Chenglong then sent a copy of the compiled intelligence to headquarters, the Eastern Theater Command, and the Dawn City military headquarters.
Li Chenglong specifically prioritized the information on the locations of other dark race squads that had come to China, urging other bases to take it seriously and mobilize their forces to attack them.
After thanking Li Chenglong, Dongfang Yunbing led her people away. According to the intelligence she had obtained, some small teams of dark races had also entered their territory. She needed to rush back to report to Zhao Wuji and then organize a team to surround and wipe out the invaders.
After Han Fei presented the intelligence sent by Li Chenglong to Chen Guoqiang, he took it very seriously and immediately sent people to contact the bases with invaders, instructing them to eliminate them as soon as possible. If their combat strength was insufficient, they could request support from the surrounding bases.
After seeing off Dongfang Yunbing and the others, Li Chenglong and the three women also bid farewell to the local garrison and headed towards Dawn City in an off-road vehicle. Zhao Liying said in the car, "Captain Li, it seems that the Dark Alliance has the upper hand in Europe right now. Do you think they might send a large army to attack us because they were frustrated by this operation?"
Jin Mengqi smoothed her hair: "Probably not. We're so far from Europe, and there aren't enough planes for them to take. They can't get here from that far away." Li Chenglong said as he drove: "It's better to be safe than sorry. I'll go back and notify the Dawn Army's information support unit and the intelligence department in Dawn City to keep a close eye on the international situation."
It took them three days to return to Dawn City. Along the way, Li Chenglong first went to the Qingshui Base, then to the Feiyun Base, where he delivered all the orders they had placed with him before, earning a considerable amount of high-grade crystals.
Because Li Chenglong, Dongfang Yunbing, and Zhuque acted too quickly, the three women hadn't had time to participate in the previous battle against the dark race, so they inquired about the battle. Wang Shuang asked, "Captain Li, were those dark race people powerful?"
Li Chenglong nodded: "Those five are nothing special to me, but compared to our level 11 warriors, especially level 11 single-element warriors, they will be formidable opponents. Especially that vampire squad leader, whose strength is equivalent to a late-stage level 11 dual-element ability user, and a rather strong one at that, like Wu Gang or Zheng Aiguo. I only found out when I asked earlier that the vampire squad leader was just an earl, while the vampire hierarchy is duke, marquis, earl, viscount, and baron."
He paused for a moment and continued, "The second strongest one is that werewolf named Simon, who has the strength of a mid-level level 11 dual-elemental ability user. The other one is a mummy, an orc, and a dwarf, who are relatively weak, only at the late level 10, and their abilities are also quite average. Any one of you could easily defeat them."
At 1 p.m. on May 26, the four returned to Shuguang City. Since it was midday and the time for lunch break, Li Chenglong did not disturb them and let the three women go home to rest. He left the rest to them.
Unlocking the door and entering the living room, Li Chenglong saw the little guy taking a nap in his bedroom, with Susie sleeping beside him. He quietly went over and closed the door before entering his and Yunlan's master bedroom. Yunlan was also napping. Although it was quite hot outside, the entire Shuguang Building had central air conditioning to control the temperature; the interior temperature was 24 degrees Celsius in summer and 30 degrees Celsius in winter.
Li Chenglong tiptoed over, intending to steal a touch of Yunlan's pretty face, but his hand was immediately grasped by Yunlan. Yunlan smiled and said, "You're back without even saying hello. Have you eaten? I'll make you some food." Li Chenglong lay wearily on the bed, saying, "We had boxed lunches for lunch. We were full, but not really satisfied. Let me sleep for a while; I have a meeting this afternoon, and I need to explain the situation."
As he spoke, he suddenly hugged Yunlan from behind and fell asleep in less than 10 seconds. Yunlan wanted to say something, but hearing Li Chenglong's steady breathing, she knew he was tired, so she leaned her back against him and closed her eyes to continue sleeping.
After sleeping for an hour, Li Chenglong woke up refreshed and full of energy. He quickly took a shower, made a cup of tea for Yunlan and placed it on the bedroom table, then made a cup of special-powered honey water for the little guy playing with Su Qian in the living room before heading out to the military headquarters.
At 3:30 p.m., officers of the Dawn Legion at the deputy regimental level and above, as well as relevant members of the Dawn City Defense Department, the Young Pioneers, and the Dawn City Intelligence Department who had received the notification, all arrived at the military headquarters' conference room. In no time, the small conference room was filled with people, and some even sat in the aisle.
Li Chenglong greeted everyone first, while Wang Jie operated the computer and he gave various explanations. When everyone learned that new enemies had appeared—invaders from the Dark Alliance in the West—they were all greatly surprised. Zhao Rui stood up and said, "When I was a kid, I watched all sorts of horror and fantasy movies. Adults always said the vampires, werewolves, orcs, dwarves, and stuff like that were fake. I never thought they'd all suddenly appear."
Li Chenglong briefly explained the combat capabilities of the dark race that had been dispatched, and reminded all departments to be on high alert. The Dawn City intelligence department and the Dawn Army's information support forces were also instructed to intensify their information gathering. The patrol frequency of unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and Tyrannosaurus fighters should be increased to guard against infiltration and attacks from the Dark Alliance around Dawn City.
At the same time, as required by the Huaxia headquarters, Dawn City will also dispatch two teams to help those weaker bases that have been infiltrated by small teams from the Dark Alliance to kill enemies.
The meeting proceeded quickly, lasting only a little over an hour. After Li Chenglong adjourned the meeting, he kept the two team captains behind and gave them some private instructions before letting them leave. He took out a glass of water and sat down at the computer desk in the conference room to rest. Yun Lan came over and massaged his shoulders to help him relax.
Zheng Yong asked from the side, "Old Li, do you think those dark races might attack us?" Feng Tian sighed, "It would be best if they didn't. We need time now to better build up our Dawn City and the Dawn Army. But even if they come, Dawn City isn't afraid of them." Qi Guoan said, "The vampire counts are all at the late stage of level 11 dual-elemental ability, so their marquises and dukes are probably even stronger. The Dark Alliance, led by them, will be a formidable enemy."
After chatting for a while, Li Chenglong emphasized that starting next month, the Dawn Army would cancel all holidays and enter a state of combat readiness, and Dawn City would also change from a two-day weekend to a one-day weekend. Yunlan and the others all expressed their support for this.
Just as he was about to return to the Dawn Building, he received a communication from the China headquarters. General Chen Guoqiang said in his crystal phone that the European Human Alliance was very concerned after learning about the arrival of the dark race in China. They had dispatched a team to come by plane to share intelligence about the dark race with China. The representatives of this delegation were Fiona and Sophia, whom Li Chenglong had met before.
Because they will arrive at the Anxi base airport tomorrow afternoon, but in order not to affect the previous work of each base, the people from each base do not need to come this time. Instead, the European delegation visiting China will take a special plane to the main bases of each war zone to give explanations. Because the X2 spaceship in Dawn City has excellent performance and can accommodate many passengers after modification, General Chen Guoqiang proposed to requisition one.
Li Chenglong immediately agreed, stating that Dawn City would not only temporarily provide an X2 spaceship but also two Tyrannosaurus Rex fighters for escort. After the communication ended, Li Chenglong contacted the Dawn City Air Force to make arrangements for the matter.
At 7:30 p.m., Li Chenglong's family gathered at Li Chenglong's house. This was the first time they had all eaten together in May. They were usually too busy with work or on missions, so they didn't have much time to spend together.
